Chapter 23: Who is the thief?
The whole Song Mansion was shocked, Dafang, Song Fang's concubine would whip her sister? It is regarded as disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous people.
The family members of the Song Mansion were furious, and Song Huaifeng personally investigated and dealt with the matter
It turns out that this matter has a beginning and an end, and that's what happened
Three days ago, Song Fang's daughter-in-law Song Xuanxuan, her fiancé is Gu Guogong, and her son Gu Zhu came to send a post, Gu Guogong's eldest daughter Gu Sisi is sixteen years old, and she will marry on the sixth day of the next month. I arrived in person, and the Song Mansion sent the post.
The two young men Gu Zhu and Song Xuanxuan just said a few words through the screen, that's all, but they knew enough.
The two had just spoken a few words, and suddenly a little maid Xi'er shouted loudly: "The master mother is not good, the silver ticket in the box is lost, I checked your idle silver just now, and there is 120 taels of silver missing!" ”
Fang Cuiyu was originally a rude person, how could he allow this to happen under his nose? If it is an ordinary virtuous person, he will definitely suppress this matter, after all, his prospective son-in-law is here, it is not appropriate to make a big fuss, she is good, she has to find out clearly, clearly.
The maid Xi'er said: "I saw the 120 taels of silver tickets yesterday, but today I found that there are none!" ”
The mother of the big houseowner: "Send someone to investigate, who has entered the big house back and forth in the past two days!" ”
Xi'er knelt on the ground, her face trembling and pale, and she didn't dare to squeak
Fang Cuiyu said angrily: "Who has been in and out of my bedroom for the past two days? ”
Xi'er subconsciously glanced up at the eldest lady Xuan Xuan, and said stubbornly: "The eldest lady has been here in the past few days, and Xi'er followed when everyone else came, only Xi'er didn't follow when the eldest lady came, and went, and went to the back kitchen to serve plum blossom pastries, because the eldest lady loves to eat the most!" ”
The princes in the house, Gu Zhu and Xuanxuan, were stunned, hearing this, Gu Zhu couldn't believe it, and looked at his fiancée behind the screen, Song Xuanxuan.
Fang Cuiyu, the mother of the big houseowner, regretted it at this time, she shouldn't have investigated this matter in such a high-profile manner, she actually implicated her daughter, and now she can't do it if she doesn't investigate, the son of the world must have an explanation here, you can't break dirty water on your daughter, dirty water!
Xi'er saw that her grandmother's face was pale and ugly, and after thinking about it, she trembled and said again: "The second lady also came once, but the slave maid followed, and the second lady was not left alone in the house, but the second lady looked different when she left, and the slave didn't know what was going on, her face was very pale, I heard that his aunt seemed to be sick, and she was a little nervous about the monthly money recently!" ”
Fang Cuilan frowned: "Go and call Aunt Liu to me."
Xi'er said in a panic: "Aunt Liu is bedridden, it's been many days!" ”
Gu Zhu: "Auntie, should you give the eldest lady a clean slate now?!" ”
Fang Cui Yulan nodded, and ordered someone to check the eldest lady's clothes to prove her innocence, Xi'er found 120 taels of silver tickets in one of the eldest lady's plum bags.
The eldest lady's face turned pale, and her fiancé Gu Zhu was stunned for a moment, looking at his fiancée Song Xuanxuan.
Eldest Miss, tears were in her eyes, and her voice was a little choked: "Gu Lang, I really didn't steal, you believe me, she is my own mother, I won't steal my mother's money, I was wronged, I stole this hundred taels of silver, what can I do?" My mother bought me a hairpin for dozens of taels, is it just a hairpin money that I need to steal? At the risk of being exposed, my mother had quietly prepared a dowry for me, worth tens of thousands of taels, how could I steal a hundred taels of silver? I was wronged! ”
Gu Zhu said soothingly: "I believe you!" ”
The eldest lady, Song Xuanxuan, choked up and cried.
Aunt Liu's residence in the big house, the birds and flowers in the brand-new courtyard, the scenery is pleasant, Xi'er nodded, she is worthy of the woman who has been favored by the eldest young master Song Fang.
Xi'er entered the room, owed a debt, and said, "Aunt Liu, the housemother has invited the second lady to go!" ”
Aunt Liu struggled on the sickbed and sat up: "Ahem, what's the matter?" ”
Xi'er: "The housewife wants to ask some questions, please go to the second lady!" ”
Aunt Liu nodded and looked at her daughter standing next to the sickbed: "Jingxuan, you go and go immediately to see what is going on?" ”
Jingxuan nodded, and followed Xi'er to be generous.
Song Xuanxuan's fiancé Gu Zhu was not good at participating in the affairs of her father-in-law's family, so she stayed for a while and said goodbye and returned to Gu's house.
Song Jingxuan knelt in front of her mother-in-law and burst into tears: "Jingxuan didn't steal money, she didn't frame the eldest sister!" ”
Just now, the housewife said that she framed the eldest lady and stole a hundred taels of silver.
At this moment, the eldest lady also had red eyes, staring at Jingxuan deadly.
Jing Xuan explained: "My grandmother did come to you yesterday, but all I asked was to change a doctor for my aunt, and the doctor said that my aunt had a cold? Why is it that after taking medicine for more than half a month, it is not good? Jingxuan was accompanied by the maid Xi'er throughout the whole process, and it was impossible to steal your silver! ”
The eldest lady was angry: "You lied that you did come yesterday, accompanied by Xi'er, but when you came the day before yesterday, I obviously entered the house and saw you sitting alone in the hall drinking tea, maybe Xi'er remembered wrongly, obviously it was the account ordered the day before yesterday, enough for one hundred taels of silver, and it was lost today, why wasn't the silver lost the day before yesterday?" ”
Jing Xuan's eyes turned red: "Eldest sister, I really didn't take the silver!" ”
Song Xuanxuan: "There are all human and material evidence, you are the only one who is unaccompanied, do you still have to quibble?" The mind is really vicious! ”
Fang Cuiyu, the generous mother of the house, didn't want to make a big deal about it, because no matter who took it, it was an ugly thing in the Song Mansion, so Fang Cuiyu glanced at her daughter and said: Xuanxuan, have you forgotten? Obviously I gave you the money the day before yesterday and told you to buy some snacks to eat, why did you forget? ”
Song Xuanxuan was stunned for a moment, not knowing the deep meaning of her mother's words.
Fang Cuiyu: "Xuanxuan, no matter which of your sisters makes a scandal?" For our Song Mansion, the reputation is damaged! ”
Xuanxuan's face was ugly, and she couldn't wait to eat Song Jingxuan framed herself to make a fool of herself in front of her fiancé, Song Xuanxuan gritted her teeth and nodded.
Only then did we have the scene in the last chapter, Xuanxuan was thirteen years old, and privately took a few children who were about the same age as Jingxuan, and intercepted Jingxuan with a whip and whipped Jingxuan.
Song Huaijin, the head of the Song Mansion, is not a fool, he is a shrewd person, and he immediately sent someone to find out what was going on in this matter? It is absolutely impossible for the eldest lady to steal his mother's money, and the second lady will never steal it, Song Huaijin believes that his grandsons are all righteous gentlemen who stand up to the sky, and they will never do anything like stealing chickens and dogs.
The final result was found out that it was Suo'er next to the eldest lady, who broke a jade worth dozens of taels three months ago, and was punished by the eldest lady, holding a grudge, just taking this opportunity to frame the eldest lady and throw face in front of his fiancé, but he didn't think that the second lady was back!
That night, Song Huaijin, the head of the Song Mansion, tied up Suo'er and sent him to the official mansion, and finally returned the innocence of the two young ladies of the Song family.
The eldest lady of the Song family was imprisoned in the ancestral hall for three days and three nights, and she was punished for not entering the ancestral hall.
